I TODAY IS CIRCUS DAY IN MEDFORD BIG SHOW TONIGHT V ill (M iTi'iViVir (.11 reus day, to the kids the big gest day of the year, not excepting Fourth of July . or Christmas, Is here today, marking the first visit to Medford of the Christy Brothers hig five-ring wild nhimal circus, the largest circus in the world that still retnins the always looked for street parade. From everywhere within a wide radius people have been driving to town to see the circus. Throngs of people, old and young, gathered early in the business district and although it was entirely too soon, grew impatient because the street parade did not put In an appear ance. They jammed the sidewalks, streets were filled with cars and the roofs of buildings as well as telephone and teit-graph polos were used as vantage points to got an unobstructed view of the big gag: eant. Scenes of circus day were enact etl as early as U o'clock when the crowd began to arrive and tho cir cus street men began to display their wares. Soon vari-colorcd b ad 1 o o it s were bobbing In the breeze, -fond' mothers bought little l'Ubbor elephants for the kids. Home preferred tho subbor snakes and blue birds on a stick met with a ready sale. The merchants profit ed by the .coming of the circus, particularly the restaurants and tho Ice cream parlors. . Drug stores were well patronized and everyone garnered in a few extrn dollars that were nut left with the ticket spllor.s out at the show grounds. Tho circus spent quite a sum with the local merchants, all of tho. feed being purchased here by the 4 bour man, so called, who came here yesterday and .had delivered this morning; two tons of hay, bushels of oats, .1000 pounds pf''om every angle, it must be ad bran, four sides of beef for th nnlmnls. 50CI loaves of broad at the cookhouse .half a dozen crates of CL-U'S end 20 unllmw nf. In ,.lm,i,. for the candy stands. There wits a trucklond of groceries delivered I to ' the. show's steward early tills) morning and all of tho Boo cm- ployox of the big show spent some money In local .stores. To some; a circus, day may be an 111 wind, but It blew a lot of good today to local merchants. I Christy's iiltc a Show. Tin: Christy show is not a small! affair. There Is a manimolh circus "big top" with seven polos, that looked almost as long as a city block, a menagerie with six poles, that held 30 cages of wild ani mals and the elephants and cam els, u side-show with Its freaks and curlofdties. a pit show where I there was a- midget and n six- legged horse, two dressing rooms, four stables CHlcil with ninri. limn 200 fine horses, a cooking tent and dlnlnir room and l.l.ioltsnih h end renalr shoos. The circus has its own electric lighting system, and ,.......n w,. , carries n force of expert mechanics. m ... ..... ... i nere aro.wnn me snow more man sou people and they represent III most every nationality. There are Chinese who do marvelous halr slldes in the circus: l'orlo Itleans. famous acrobats, who think .noth ing of turning triple somersaults: Mexican wire-walkers who stand on their hands on wires strung 30 feet. In midair; a Spanish girl who does a whirl of death wllh a fly- '"ji" '-' and animals who pcr vory clinic. Most , of the worklngmen wore colored and It was worth a trip to the show grounds to watch the gangs of four and six pound the long stakes Into the ground, biff, biff, biff, never a miss, each one hitting In proper rotation. Tboy sung as they worked and seemed a hnppy-go- luoky crowd. Yes. sub, we's all j fi-iim Texas," said one of the gang "Been with Mister Chreesly fur a long time. lie feeds, lis all In de winter and we docs nothln' but cat." ( rooms Kept Busy, , T,he grooftns In charge of the ponies' and the 30 train 1 ring city act, had their hands full, Just at this time every year, comes the mm Rrn) of m,iK,,t ponies and ' thoroughbred colls. There '' tore than 20 of them with t..e show now. and Home of 'them but a day old. They are sopa-. rated from the mother at birth and taken care of by the grooms ox- ' .uoincr love ,vnM very much in evidence among 1,10 mares and they refused lo even 1,0 curried or led to water and I even when in the ring whinnied nd mado every effort to Join their I offsprings. Tt kept the trainers and grooms on the jump every see. ond. There are a hundred trained horses and 60 ponies with tho big show. rienihifr Stroot PnrnrK The Christ j- i.miv made Bood Itsj boast of having a big street pa rade, it was possibly tho best seen here since the days the Illnglings used to make use of this big morn ing .advertising feature. The first band-wagon mado tho old-timers rub their eyes. It was just liko the ones tho ltingllngs used to use, magnificently carved and deco rated float with tho bass drummer hitfh up In front and the coructists under the canopy at the rear. There were two other golden alio- j gorical baud chariots, America and Asia, that did not miss anyone's admiring glances, good looking 1 lady riders, open dens of wild ani-j mals lumbering elephants and i shuffling camels, that looked I thirsty and bored, tandem teams ! of snow white stallions and ze-j brase, a Scotch band and a bunch of colored jazz artists, as well as! the customary calliope at the fag end, that could be heard two miles out in the country and made the kids stick their fingers in their ears as the old veteran at tho key board played very appropriately "The Good Old Summer Tlny." Tho kids liked the caes with tho monkeys and the baboons the host, but the cowboys, especially the little kid and his partner all doll ed up in t true western style, did not want for companions or at tention. The kids kept alongside of them all tho way back to the show lot. There was a big dis play of lions. Home monster tigers, polar bears, deer, pumas and leop ards and a complete children's me nagerie. The Christy show takes good care of the kiddies and this afternoon more than 300 rode tho little ponies and the baby ele phants after the performance. Looking1 at the Christy shows mitted that It Is a real circus, much more free of objectionable features than Is the case usually, and there was not even a dance for men only ' 'n the sldo-show.
